It is a software to program ISP based 8051 controllers(89SXX) on Linux. The software decodes the hex file entered from the command line and send it to controller's flash memory using PC's parallel port.The hardware connections are very minimal.
Utility for programming an AT89S52 via a parallel port.
prog89S52 is a utility for Linux on the PC, allowing programming of Atmel's AT89S52 microcontroller via the parallel printer port. Atmel's 89S are programmable via an SPI port and therefore require absolutely no additional components in order to program them in-system.
This program requires a standard "Centronics" type PC parallel port (a bidirectional, EPP or ECP port is not required). A 5-way cable is required to connect the microcontroller to the port; wiring information is given in...
